PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC vs. ARC DAC7 ??

I compared the Perfect Wave to an ARC DAC 8 , the DAC8 was in another league all together , I bought it .

That is interesting...what do you find the PW lacking ? It made AS Product of the year. To my ear, for digital you are spliting hairs and can spend alot more than $6k and it's arguable if there is a significant improvemnt. It's a matter of taste at the level.

PS I like your Revel's...looks like you could use some room treatments...ie: Bass traps and reflection free zones. It would be the best money you could ever spend on your stereo..your not getting the most out of it with an untreated room. Cheers !

well the PS Audio has the bridge card option ($795.00) to run the dac as a server. Might be a good route to go. I haven't heard the other DAC. I do own the Perfect Wav Dac and Transport and it's a great sounding unit.
